The Devil in Miss Jones

Synopsis:

A church going Midwestern carpenter, well respected in his community, starts receiving clandestine letters recruiting him for a woodworking competition. Curious, he responds with interest and unwittingly changes the course of his life forever. The tournament, he discovers, is a battle of carpentry skills, to the death.

He is kidnapped from his home and dropped in a remote Ecuadorian village with the best carpenters from around the world.

The Midwestern carpenter has no choice but to break the carpenter's oath and use his skills to kill, all while contending with starvation, torture and a really unforgiving language barrier. Throughout increasingly tough rounds, the carpenter finds strength in God, until the finals when he is forced to compete in a beveling competition against a young woman who is a direct descendant of the greatest carpenter to ever live, Jesus Christ.
